Simulation 3D — MATRIX MODELS ONLY —
SUBMENU OF ADVANCED IMAGE
SETTINGS
Use the options in the
Simulation
3D
menu to make the timing
adjustments necessary for realistic
simulation and 3D images.
NOTES:
1)
Available in Matrix
projectors only.
FRAME DELAY MONITOR —
For best
results, the value should remain
fairly constant, indicating that
timing of input and output frames is
locked; the Frame Delay Monitor value should stay within 5-10 lines or so of the
Frame Delay setting. If a frame is lost or “dropped”, this value will cycle to maximum
and jump to minimum and then repeat, indicating that the frame input is no longer
equal to the output. If the signal is not locked, the values will change erratically; you
can adjust the Frame delay to attempt a correction.
FRAME DELAY —
Set the number of lines delayed between the input signal and its
appearance on screen, keeping in mind that projector processing always
adds one
frame of delay
to the frame delay setting. For applications such as simulation, where
the feeling of “real time” image response is a priority, a minimum setting is usually
preferable. For projectors capable of 3D (stereographic) applications where alternating
left-right frames must be synchronized with the corresponding L/R shutters in 3D
glasses, a total frame delay setting of two (or multiple of two) may be more useful. If
set too high or low, frame locking will not be possible—most sources require
approximately 50 lines of delay to ensure frame locking.
ACCUFRAME
– Increasing the AccuFrame value will reduce the artifacts related to fast
motion in simulation content. Symptoms of blurry objects or loss of apparent detail
may indicate a need for this value to be adjusted.
NOTE:
If increasing AccuFrame does not improve image quality, reduce the value to
0. Increasing AccuFrame may increase ‘flicker’ of the display and may reduce overall
brightness.
FRAME LOCK ENABLE
—
This option allows the projector to control the output frame
timing based on the input signal. The
locked
option forces (if possible) the output
image to be phase locked to the input frames.
Rate Matched
means that the output
runs at close to the input frequency but isn’t locked to it so the output will drift in
phase relative to the output. Free Run forces the output to run at a 60Hz frame rate.
